God of War IV will feature online co-op, according to the rumors section in the latest issue of UK gaming mag PSM3.

Co-op mode will revolve around series protagonist Kratos and his brother Deimos, who attempt to escape the afterlife, reads the rumor.

God of War IV has already had its fair amount of turnups. In March this year, a resume mentioned development of the game, followed by a September 2012 release rumor in April. In May, Official PlayStation Magazine UK’s rumor mill said it’d include multiplayer, and in November it appeared on a New Zealand retailer website.
